The rest of us have trained our feet to brake if a red light appears. I haven't yet, but then I've only had mine 2 days! I keep expecting it not to work, and being incredibly surprised when it does - which, so far, it has every time! -- Annabel Smyth http://www.amsmyth.demon.co.uk/index.html Website updated 8 March 2004 |

I keep expecting it not to work, and being incredibly surprised when it does - which, so far, it has every time! The only time my Oyster "hasn't worked" is when I didn't have enough credit to get into the system... so really it works all the time. (Incidentally it's extremely useful being able to run up a negative balance if I'm in a hurry, and pay it off later). -- Dave Arquati Imperial College, SW7 www.alwaystouchout.com - Transport projects in London |
